Here is some more up on my lift. Intercooler, etc..

Re: TrailBlazer SS owners?
 

have you had it since new? How's it run with 8 lbs of boost? How's the spool up/lag?
I've been planning on boosting mine but unsure...been planning on a TVS in the next year or so.

Re: TrailBlazer SS owners?
 

No, I bought it last June with only 17K miles showing. I traded in my beloved 99 CC Dually (454, 4L80E with 75K miles, see pics). :thud: That was hard to do but I have been looking a long time for a nice TBSS. I spotted this SS on the internet at the local Toyota Dealership while searching for one locally. Saw the boost gauge installed in the dash and knew I had to take a closer look. The STS system was a bonus, I don't think they realized what they had or did and it made them nervous. So I was glad to take it off their hands. :devil:

It run's great I love it. Just plants you in the seat. Everyone that goes for a ride gives you the OMG smile! :metal:

Unless you are on the freeway you must turn off the traction control when you are going to play. If not it will fall on its face and let out a big fart from the pressure relief valve.

It builds boost very quickly and is a riot to drive!

Re: TrailBlazer SS owners?
 

yeah....I can see the traction control becoming an issue!

Re: TrailBlazer SS owners?
 

what did you go and get rid of it for?

Re: TrailBlazer SS owners?
 

Found out right before we sold it that at some point it had nitrous on it. It was killing us on fuel cost. I guess they had a tune installed that they didn't take out. The best we got was 17mpg. We didn't buy it for the gas mileage, but when the best you can get is 17mpg, and where we were averaging on my wife driving it to work was about 10mpg. It had to go. However, my wife informed me the other day that after we pay off our Mustang GT that we will be looking to acquire another SS for another vehicle. :D

Cool...congrats! Nice combo.

Some might think this is a bit premature....but as far as I'm concerned they don't make 'em like that anymore! :chevy:

Re: TrailBlazer SS owners?
 

Thanks. We really missed our old one. Hopefully this one will hang around for a while.

I wasn't really looking for a loaded one. We were really pleased with the cloth interior of our last one. Some vehicles I really prefer leather in, but the SS's cloth seats were really nice. The only thing I wish this one had was the suede inserts in the rear seats like the 07-09's. Wasn't really wanting the AWD either, but it will be a nice peace of mind when the wife is driving in inclement weather.
